Hi Hans,

Thanks.

I have it now to the point where the document/index.html file links are all pointing to
/cgi-bin/simple/index.html except there are no files or directories there.

my file path is /home/texstapes/www/cgi-bin

I'm not sure if this makes a difference..

I'll look at your notes and see if something works for me.

Thanks again,

Wes
